Lydia The Tattooed Lady 歌词
Lydia The Tattooed Lady -Harold Arlen /Yip Harburg
Oh Lydia oh Lydia say have you met Lydia
Oh Lydia the tattooed lady
She has eyes that folks adore so
And a torso even more so
Lydia oh Lydia that Encyclopedia
Oh Lydia the Queen of tattoo
On her back is the Battle of Waterloo
Beside it the Wreck of the Hesperus too
And proudly above the waves
The Red White and Blue
You can learn a lot from Lydia
La la la La la la La la la La la la
When her row this unfair
She give you a view the world
If you step up and tell her where
For a dime you can see Kankakee or Paree
Or Washington crossing the Delaware
La la la La la la La la la La la la
Oh Lydia oh Lydia say have you met Lydia
Oh Lydia the tattooed lady
When her muscles start relaxin'
Up the hill comes Andrew Jackson
Lydia oh Lydia that Encyclopedia
Oh Lydia the champ of them all
For two bits she will do a Mazurka in Jazz
With a view of Niag'ra that no artist has
And on a clear day you can see Alcatraz
You can learn a lot from Lydia
La la la La la la La la la La la la
Come along and see Buff'lo Bill with his lasso
Just a little classic by Mendel Picasso
Here is Captain Spaulding exploring the Amazon
And Godiva but with her pajamas on
La la la La la la La la la La la la
Here is Grover Whalen unveilin'the Trylon
Over on the west coast we have Treasure Islan'
Here's Nijinsky a doin'the Rhumba
Here's her Social Security numba
Oh Lydia oh Lydia that Encyclopedia
Oh Lydia the champ of them all
She once swept an Admiral clear off his feet
The ships on her hips made his heart skip a beat
And now the old boy's in command of the fleet
For u went and Mary Lydia
I said Lydia we said Lydia
I said Lydia we said Lydia
La la
